About the organisation
About the role
The Funding Network Australia (TFN) is a national organisation that stages live crowdfunding events, and creates deeper connections into community via skilled volunteering and mentoring programs. We partner with some of Australia’s leading corporations and foundations to present these dynamic experiences all around the country. Often described as a mash-up of TED Talks and Shark Tank with soul, TFN events attract up to 150 people each from all walks of life. All come to hear social entrepreneurs pitch and then pledge their donations in support of innovative social change programs. TFN empowers everyone, from those with modest means to the affluent, to support grassroots non-profits that are deeply engaged with their communities and developing creative solutions that work for their participants.
The Events and Digital Operations Manager is a pivotal position at the heart of TFN’s management team, supporting our CEO, GM and board of directors. On average there is a TFN event happening somewhere around the country every month. Each one has a well-established 16-week schedule of activity covering applications, audience marketing, pitch-coaching, and event delivery. Your role is to lead this workstream. Most of our internal operations are digital systems based, however, the events themselves are founded on real human connection, so an ability to span both worlds is essential. We are looking for someone with event management experience, ideally on a bespoke scale (ie. frequent events for less then 250 people), and good digital/IT skills.
